VFFS packaging system

The robag 3 ttx 320 vertical form fill and seal packaging system is a rotary double jaw (RDJ) that is claimed will double production rates.

The robag 3 ttx, known as the ‘twin configuration’ because it combines two VFFS machines in a compact footprint, lowers utility costs and waste while providing high-performance packaging. Available in multiple combinations of tna jaw sizes and types, the flexible robag 3 ttx can produce any type of bag format including pillow pack, quattro or block bottom, and inner and outer bag configurations.

Constructed for easy maintenance and service access, the servo driven design of the machine has fewer moving parts than a conventional VFFS machine, driving down repair and maintenance requirements. Integrated electronics and hardware further enhance the simplicity of operation.

The simplicity of the robag 3 ttx is evident in the user-friendly digital settings and controls located on a central touch screen. The system integrates seamlessly upstream or downstream with other packaging equipment including tna’s gateless, reversible transfer and distributions, the roflo 3, and other ancillary equipment.

The 3 ttx 320 RDJ can also be paired with the trenza to create hanging strips for snack bags used predominately in stores in Asia and South America, and in niche markets. The trenza attaches the hanging strip to the front face seal of the bag so that the front of the bag is on display when it reaches stores. Bags are removed with a simple downward pull with little risk of damaging the product or any others on the strip.
